>> reporter: in the 49ers' storied history, we have the catch by clark to beat the cowboys, the throw to beat the packers. how it we can add the tackle. rams' t.j. mcdonnell dragged vernon davis down here in the third quarter. if you didn't notice, he's pulling vernon down in his crotch area. not intentional. vernon stayed on the ground afterwards to make sure he was all there, but returned to action. this gives a new meaning to a pulled groin. and vernon had these thoughts today in a sin-deleted tweet. "it should be a league rule saying a defender cannot tackle the defender by," we'll say genitals, "the most painful thing ever." as a former player i would have to agree. now it time for for more. we've teamed one tight end vernon davis every week for an exclusive interview after every game. yesterday, vernon caught his 50th career touchdown pass which places him fourth all time in 49er history. i asked last night what this means to him. >> yeah, it's a great feeling,

man. but -- but mostly i tell you the victory is even better. you know, that's good, the individual accolades and award and honors. i like to thank my teammates who are being there and making happen. >> seattle comes to town next week. this game will be key. this is a warmup. i know you're looking forward it that contest. >> of we are. we're excited. can't wait. one thing i tell everyone that we can't let ourselves get overwhelmed because as much as we want to play these guys and get -- seek revenge, we have to keep our composure. we have to stay calm and just be cool. >> reporter: we'll have another edition sunday after the seattle game when vernon davis sits down one on one. conversation with yours truly. vernon's view only here on abc 7. the 49ers' offense had one of its better outings yesterday. part of the reason was the return of king crab, michael

crabtree. the threat of his presence took the attention off some including vernon who caught his 50th career touchdown pass. >> thought he did an effective job of doing that in the game. receivers were catching the ball, getting open. it was -- it was a good day, the passing game. like my dad was -- why don't you run the ball better at the end of the game? good night it from my dad, that. >> still from his dad. stanford hosted by arizona state saturday in the pac 12 title game. looking for the second straight appearance win in the rose bowl. the reason they're in this position is running back tyler gaffney. he's run for 1,485 yard and 17 touchdowns this season after missing last year after he played minplay ed minor league baseball. a great end to the trip for
